Restaurante Otaola

Hidden Gem! We walked here after visiting Plaza de España, and feasted on the most delicious paella ever! My husband has a shellfish allergy, so we chose the chicken and vegetable paella. It was the BEST we've ever had. Local residents, families come to eat here and you can feel the warmth of this community in their smiles, and taste it in their food. We showed up at the posted opening time of 11:30am, and learned that this is just when the kitchen opens for the day. They actually start serving customers at 1:30pm, and I strongly recommend making a reservation.

Exceptional paella in elegant market hall with great service. Open for lunch only. Order paella for 2 from long list with helpful suggestions in English from the waiter & it is cooked for you. Linen tablecloths beneath palm trees inside an old market hall. No room for dessert but the sweet wine on the house was flavoured like prunes & really lovely. Thank you for a memorable meal!

Probably the best paella in Seville. Enough said. Place is part of a quieter part of town, 30 minutes walk from the central area, it's in a small shared marketplace with other shops so you need to keep a eye out for it. It's a little basic in its setting, but all you really need is the good food. We ordered a few appitizers and a seafood paella, come hungry it's worth it. Place is open from 1:30- 4:45, so plan your day ahead.

We had an amazing time at Otaola. We had fried calamar, seafood paella, a lovely read wine and ended on a liqueur. Staff were friendly and helpful. Service was outstanding. We didn't have a reservation so we ate at the bar. However that wasn't a problem for us. Planning on going again before we leave.

Excellent place, out of the center but walking distance. Tapas and rice are perfect . Try La ensaladilla !!!!

We visited Otaola on a Sunday. The restaurant is situated in a nice covered market square. The paella was delicious; we had the back rice with prawns and the prawns were large and tasty.
